[quote=Anonymous]Np and new to this, so I appreciate the discourse. I never heard the term “masking” before - years ago I think it was “fake it til you make it.” And it would’ve been a positive thing to be able to go to school and “fake it” - ie be a model student. Even if you went home and had a panic attack. Wouldn’t it be a positive thing to be able to “mask” for 8-9 hours? I feel like that’s what I’ve been doing my whole life!! I understand what pp is saying that if your kid can mask for 8 hours at school, maybe it’s your parenting / home environment. Maybe you aren’t providing enough discipline like they do at school, or you’re letting your kid get away with too much. I think that could be true for some kids. For other kids, I think it would be that the kid feels safe at home and therefore can let out his feelings - ie your home environment is wonderful and your parenting is great. [/quote]
